The Nintendo Switch has become the fastest selling console of 2017 in Japan as it has shifted 2.5 million units since it launched back in March. If you’ve been following our Media Create’s posts on a Wednesday this won’t come as much of a surprise. Nintendo’s latest console is easily outselling Sony’s PlayStation 4, which is extremely encouraging.
Japan: Nintendo Switch Has Sold 2.5 Million Units In 2017
2.5 million in Japan alone? Can we get a Wii U comparison?
In less than a year Switch will easily top 5 million worldwide? Could it hit 10 million?
Really great stuff
Actually it’s already sold 7.6M worldwide as of september. I could see it reaching 13-14M by the end of the year if it has good holiday sales
This is the closest I could find:

Here’s your comparison!
This means by March, the Switch would be very close of passing the lifetime sales for the Wii U sold! (For Japan only)
They must be very pleased.
And this is only from Japan
It will probably happen my prediction that the Switch will surpass Wii U sold units on this year
